Ferrigno ABSTRACT This report describes the machine-readable files developed for the High Plains Regional Aquifer-System Analysis project that are stored on two mag¬ netic tapes and are available from the U.S. Geological Survey. The first tape contains computer programs that were used to prepare, store, retrieve, orga¬ nize, and preserve the areal interpretive data collected by the project staff. The second tape contains 134 data files that can be divided into five general classes: (1) Aquifer-geometry data, (2) aquifer and water characteristics, (3) water levels, (4) climatological data, and (5) land- and water-use data. INTRODUCTION The machine-readable files described in this report were assembled as part of the High Plains Regional Aquifer-System Analysis (RASA) project and include computer programs and geohydrologic data. The computer programs were used to manage the data which in turn were used to generate various reports (see "Selected References"), hydrologic analyses, and aquifer simulations. This report provides a description of the characteristics and contents of two magnetic tapes--the computer software tape and the data tape. The computer software tape consists of 29 files of programs and support¬ ing files that were used to prepare, store, retrieve, organize, and preserve the data collected and compiled by the High Plains RASA project. Each com¬ puter program was placed in a separate file; the supporting files were com¬ bined into related groups. These programs are described and documented in two reports (Luckey and Ferrigno, 1982; Ferrigno, 1986). 1 The data tape consists of 134 files that can be divided into five general classes: (1) Aquifer-geometry data, (2) aquifer and water characteristics, (3) water levels, (4) climatological data, and (5) land- and water-use data. A description of these classes of data can be found in the report by Luckey and Ferrigno (1982). These data were stored in a data base that was managed using a commercial data-base management system (DBMS) called System 2000 1 . The magnetic tapes are stored at the U.S. Geological Survey’s National Computer Center, Reston, Va.; additional information and copies of individual files or tapes may be obtained from: Office of the Chief Hydrologist, Water Resources Division, U.S. Geological Survey, Mail Stop 409, National Center, 12201 Sunrise Valley Drive, Reston, VA 22092. PHYSICAL CHARACTERISTICS OF THE MAGNETIC TAPES The physical characteristics of the magnetic tapes were chosen to make the tapes compatible with a wide variety of computer systems. For example, the density and block-size values are small so that the tapes can be read using a minicomputer or a microcomputer. The magnetic tapes have the following physical characteristics: Tracks: Density: Labels: Record Length (Fixed): Block Size: Code: 9 1600 BPI (bits per inch) None 80 bytes 2,000 bytes ASCII. The magnetic tapes were generated on an Amdahl 470V/7 computer located at the U.S. Geological Survey's National Computer Center in Reston, Va. Each computer program, supporting file, or data file was initially stored as a sequential file or member of a partitioned-data set on a disk-storage device. The files were copied to a magnetic tape using an IBM utility program called IEBGENER. DATA-BASE PROGRAMS AND SUPPORTING FILES The machine-readable files that are stored on magnetic-tape number 220452 can be divided into four categories: (1) Source code for computer programs, (2) IBM Job Control Language (JCL) for executing the programs, (3) files con¬ taining variable declarations used by some of the computer programs, and (4) miscellaneous information. Listed in table 1 are the files in the order in which they were stored on the magnetic tape. ^he use of brand names in this report is for identification purposes only and does not constitute endorsement by the U.S. Geological Survey. 2 The computer programs (files 1 through 23 in table 1) can be divided into three categories: (1) Data-preparation programs, (2) programs that interact with the data base and the DBMS, and (3) data-application programs. These programs were written in either Fortran IV or PL/1. A detailed description of the programs can be found in two reports published by the High Plains RASA project (Luckey and Ferrigno, 1982; Ferrigno, 1986). Files 1 through 5 on magnetic-tape number 220452 contain the data- preparation programs. All of these programs were written in Fortran IV. These programs were part of an automated procedure that was used to generate some of the data for the High Plains RASA project. The source materials for the data usually were geohydrologic maps. The output from the last data- preparation program (file 5 in table 1) consists of data sets in the format needed for loading into the data base. Files 6 through 16 on magnetic-tape number 220452 contain the programs that interact with the data base and the DBMS. These programs were linked to System 2000 (the DBMS) by means of subroutines provided by the developers of System 2000. The Edit and Retrieval Programs (files 6, 9, and 10 in table 1) were written in Fortran IV. All other programs in this group (files 7, 8, and 11 through 16 in table 1) were written in PL/1. The programs in files 6 through 16 perform functions such as loading, retrieving, and updating data stored in the data base. Files 17 through 23 on magnetic-tape number 220452 contain the programs that use data retrieved from the data base. All of these programs were written in PL/1. Among other functions, these programs can be used for mathe¬ matical manipulations and graphical display of data. The Graphics Program uses two computer programs produced by Calcomp Computer Products, Inc. Files 24 through 26 on magnetic-tape number 220452 contain the pro¬ cedures, written in IBM JCL, to execute the computer programs. These pro¬ cedures were written to be used on the Amdahl 470V/7 computer in Reston, Va., and make reference to files that are stored on a 3350-type disk-storage device. File 24 contains the procedures for executing the data-preparation programs. File 25 contains the procedures for executing the programs that access the data base and the DBMS. File 26 contains the procedures for executing the data-application programs. Files 27 and 28 on magnetic-tape number 220452 contain the variable declarations needed to link the programs in files 6 through 16 with the System 2000 DBMS. File 29 on magnetic-tape number 220452 contains the following miscella¬ neous information: (1) A list of parameter names, (2) the data-base defini¬ tion in the form required by System 2000, (3) the list of error messages used by the Edit and Retrieval Programs, and (4) several short files containing information needed by the IBM procedures for the programs that access the data base and the DBMS. Most of the information in this file would be needed only if the data were to be stored in a data base managed by the System 2000 DBMS. 3 Table 1. --Data-base programs and supporting files File number 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 Contents and documentation Digitizer Data-Conversion Program; documented in Luckey and Ferrigno (1982, p. 33).

This magnetic tape contains a sequential version of the data originally stored in the data base. The second column of table 2 contains the study unit. The study unit identifies the geographic area that is covered by the parameter. The study unit has three possible values: (1) HIPLAINS indicates that the data cover the entire High Plains aquifer; (2) NEBRASKA indicates that the data cover Chase, Dundy, and Perkins Counties in Nebraska; and (3) TEXAS indicates that the data cover Castro and Parmer Counties in Texas. The fourth column of table 2 is the density at which the data were stored in the data base. The possible values are 1 through 4. A density of 1 indi¬ cates one value for each 3-degree latitude-longitude block that was partially or completely within the area defined by the study unit. A density of 2 indi¬ cates one value for each 1-degree latitude-longitude block that was partially or completely within the area defined by the study unit. A density of 3 indi¬ cates one value for each 10-minute latitude-longitude block that was partially or completely within the area defined by the study unit. The most detailed data were stored at density 4. A density of 4 indicates one value for each 1-minute latitude-longitude block that was partially or completely within the area defined by the study unit. A further discussion of the density concept can be found in Luckey and Ferrigno (1982). 6 [MSL = mean sea level; Mg/L = milligrams per liter; URNRD = Upper Republican Natural Resources District; Gal/day/ft = gallons per day per foot; HPUWCD = High Plains Underground Water Conservation District] /*-\ c CO CO ✓“N a vO f—» o 00 u a • • ON 4-1 o r-4 u 'w' <0 44 •* P h* r- 00 CO * *> r- r- 03 x U ON ON P 3 rH r—» 3 • *. • QJ v—/ 'w' QJ (A (A >> P X X qj QJ 3 Hi Jh U o u O O O •H • 3 0 V4 u U P /—\ O a; QJ X QJ OJ 3 CO •H s s 3 *H V-4 a ■P s s <4 •h a; 04 o o (A (A rH rH •H cj CJ (A -X -X U JO U V4 03 U <4-4 4-4 QJ CO • 3 rH p P u co O U CM 3 3 a ON O 00 QJ 0) o QJ rH QJ 3 on 6 a pH W rH rH P p 44 •H •H M w H 4h 60 4H O «3 • A 03 44 >» 04 o.

Each data file begins with the master records 001*, 002*, and 003*. These records may be followed by remarks records consisting of sets of five 050* records. These records will be followed by the appropriate combination of the 100*, 200*, 350*, 300*, and 401*-410* records. The final record con¬ tains only a 999*. The actual combination of records depends on the data density. SUMMARY Machine-readable files were assembled as part of the High Plains RASA project and are stored on two magnetic tapes that are available from the U.S. Geological Survey. The first magnetic tape (number 220452) contains computer programs that were used to prepare, store, retrieve, organize, and preserve aerial interpretive data collected for the project. The second magnetic tape (number 220451) contains 134 data files that can be divided into five general classes: (1) Aquifer-geometry data, (2) aquifer and water characteristics, (3) water levels, (4) climatological data, and (5) land- and water-use data. 21 SELECTED REFERENCES Ferrigno, C.F., 1986, A data-management system for detailed areal interpretive data: U.S. Geological Survey Water-Resources Investigations Report 86-4061, 103 p.
